History

Regarded as a strong warrior by his fellow Jedi, Lucien was the son of Barrison Draay, a former financier turned Jedi who was killed during the Great Sith War while Lucien was still very young, and Krynda Draay, who, on the other hand, was concerned with matters of the Jedi Order and due to the difficult birth of Lucien, was unable to serve in the war. As a result, Lucien was left under the care of a droid in the Draay's large estate. Growing up, Lucien felt neglected by his mother as she trained seers at the estate, wishing himself to be trained by his mother and become a great warrior like his father before him. He began training in the Jedi arts under the tutelage of Haazen, Krynda's retainer, after she rejected his pleas for her to train him along with her many students. Some time after his training was completed and he was made a Jedi Master, Krynda and Haazen officially formed the Jedi Covenant and arranged for him and a select group of Masters to be together. However, the Jedi High Council ordered that each be given a Padawan. The Masters hesitantly took the Padawans and trained them at the Jedi Tower on the planet Taris. Lucien was given the Padawan Zayne Carrick to train, though he would neglect his training in favor of concentrating on his mother's secret organization. During the final trials of the group's Padawans, the WatchCircle encountered a vision of their deaths and what they believed to be the return of the Sith. The WatchCircle as a result struck their Padawans down during their Knighting ceremony, save for the late Zayne Carrick. The WatchCircle then framed the killings on Carrick, which resulted in a galaxy-wide chase for the supposed murderer. Matters turned for worse as two of the four members of the WatchCircle were killed and Carrick was posed to set course for Coruscant to prove his innocence in front of the Jedi High Council and expose the secret organization. At this time, Lucien was the new appointee to the Council and used his position to further keep the Council from entering the Mandalorian Wars to aid the Galactic Republic and demean the actions of the Revanchist and his followers who were beginning to be viewed as heroes. Carrick's arrival on Coruscant allowed for Haazen's plans to be set forth in motion as he usurped control of the Covenant and attempted to replace the Jedi Order with a new Sith Order. In the chaos of command Vindication, Xamar was killed by orbital bombardment and Q'Anilia committed suicide. Krynda herself was revealed to have been kept alive only by stasis and, as a result, died. After a brief fight and brush with the dark side against his former Padawan in his grief over his mother's death, Lucien turned on Haazen and destroyed the usurper and his estate. Only surviving by clenching one of Haazen's Sith artifacts, Lucien was wounded and turned to a life with more humility on a moon where he arranged a new covenant to form; one that would embrace his parents' philosophies but unlike the previous, not try to change the future but rather face and survive the coming tribulation, allowing the Jedi to continue.
